Convert PDG to MOBI

Understanding PDG and MOBI file formats

The PDG file format is primarily associated with the Chinese digital library CNKI, which stands for China National Knowledge Infrastructure. PDG files are used to store digital publications, including academic papers, journals, and e-books. They are similar to PDF files but are specifically tailored for CNKI's platform.

On the other hand, the MOBI file format is a popular eBook format used by Amazon Kindle devices. It supports complex content, including bookmarks, annotations, and JavaScript, making it ideal for eBooks. MOBI files are widely used for distributing eBooks due to their compatibility with Kindle devices and apps.

How to convert PDG to MOBI

Converting a PDG file to a MOBI file involves a few steps, as there is no direct conversion tool available. You will first need to convert the PDG file to a more common format like PDF, and then convert the PDF to MOBI.

Step 1: Convert PDG to PDF

To convert a PDG file to PDF, you can use software like CNKI's CAJViewer. Open the PDG file in CAJViewer and use the File → Export → PDF option to save the file as a PDF.

Step 2: Convert PDF to MOBI

Once you have the PDF file, you can use a tool like Calibre to convert it to MOBI. Calibre is a free and open-source eBook management software that supports a wide range of formats.
